Questions and Answers for Ken Thomas' "Intra-Extra Vehicular Activity Russian and Gemini Spacesuits" PresentationKenneth Thomas will discuss the Intra‐Extra Vehicular Activity Russian & Gemini spacesuits.

Mr. Thomas will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of this approach compared to exclusively intravehicular or extra‐vehicular suit systems.
